Turkey, bean & basil stir-fry recipe | Good Food

Units:

3 tbsp flavourless oil
2 shallots
thinly sliced
4 garlic cloves
thinly sliced
1 red chilli
thinly sliced, plus extra to serve (optional)
300g green beans
cut into short pieces
400g turkey mince
3 tbsp naturally brewed soy sauce
2 tsp fish sauce
1 tbsp honey
handful of holy or regular basil
leaves picked
4 eggs
cooked jasmine or brown rice
to serve

Method

step 1
Heat 2 tbsp oil in a large frying pan or wok over a medium heat and fry the shallots for 5 mins, stirring often, until sizzling and golden. Add the garlic, chilli and beans, and fry for 2-3 mins more, stirring often to ensure the garlic doesn’t burn.
step 2
Add the mince to the pan and continue cooking for another 6-8 mins, breaking up the mince with your spoon, until browned.
step 3
Stir in the soy sauce, fish sauce and honey, cook for another 2 mins, then toss in the basil until just wilted. Season well with salt and pepper and add a splash more soy sauce, if needed.
step 4
Heat the remaining oil in a frying pan over a medium heat. Crack in the eggs and cook to your liking – a crispy edge and runny yolk works well here. Serve the stir-fry over rice with a fried egg on top, a crack of black pepper and a scattering of red chilli, if you like.
